Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:

• On Windows, this function returns a file handle in O_TEXT mode. If you need a file handle in O_BINARY mode, you need to use the function open instead.
• On platforms where off_t is a 32-bit type, creat may not work correctly to create files larger than 2 GB. The fix is to use the AC_SYS_LARGEFILE macro.
